I'm looking for the lyrics to a 1964 song by Johnny Mac, recorded in Australia and composed by Peter Hiscock. The only lines I know are from the chorus: Takes more than a big sombrero, takes more than a fancy hat To change a city slicker boy into a country cat Many thanks for any information. |

Can't be a coincidence. 'Composer' was Beryl Main. Instrumental side sample here: Wagon Wheel 304 WW304 call sheet on Discogs (scroll down.) |
